5. Which answer correctly summarizes the essential elements of a scientific theory?
A. descriptions of the natural world; based on many observations and data; do not explain why
B. eventually become laws; based on many tests and reviews; usually do not change
C. never become laws; based on strong scientific support; may change based on evidence
D. predictions and descriptions; based on observation and logic; may change based on evidence

if you had to choose just one, i'd go with C becuase "scientific support" seems more credible as "evidence" than observation.
but again, i think D is a pretty good answer (tell your teacher. he/she will be impressed with you :-)
